Chapter 261 - Navigator (2/2)

The individuals Wei Huo chose were very targeted. They were creatures of the sea, land, and air. That way, even if the ship faced any problems, as long as these three Legendary races assumed their original form, they could take away a large number of people and equipment. At the same time, a Rare-ranked ship from each race could cooperate with the Research Department to conduct armor research. If they encountered an enemy, they could be sent to engage in actual combat and obtain armor data.

Wei Huo had spoken, so the demons could no longer argue. Everything was done as Wei Huo had instructed.

After the decision to head to the Western Continent was made, the people heading to the Western Continent rode the Soaring Cloud to the South Sea.

Then, they saw the gigantic armored warship.

When the ship reached the shore, humans and demons visited it every day. However, they only looked from afar and could not board the ship.

After Wei Huo and the others boarded the ship, they met the captain and the first mate. The captain was very excited, as he was a member of the Soaring Cloud City’s city guard. He had seen Wei Huo from afar before, but this was the first time the first mate had seen Wei Huo.

At that moment, Wei Huo appeared as ordinary as any man on the street. If he had not been walking in front, he would have been overlooked by others.

When they boarded the ship, the ship was ready to sail officially. However, according to tradition, some rituals would take place before they sailed away. One had to pray to the Sea God, but the ritual was very simple. The captain said a few words and the ship officially set sail!

Everyone was standing on the deck when they heard the roar of the powerful engine. Soon, the giant battleship started moving slowly. The humans and demons on the shore were in high spirits, and their faces were filled with shock.

It was the first time they were seeing such a huge ship.

The Navigator kept moving forward. Soon, they left the shore. In less than 10 minutes, they could not even see the shore.

The powerful thruster provided the ship with strong momentum. It continued moving forward at an extremely fast speed.

On the second day, a storm suddenly descended. Heavy rain poured down, and a strong wind howled. The whole world was pitch-black, lightning flashed, and thunder rumbled from time to time.

However, the ship continued riding the waves. It was fearless in the face of this terrifying storm. Nothing could stop it.

Wei Huo thought of the time when he had left the Northern Continent on a ship to head to the Central Continent a long time ago. It was not easy for a small boat to cross the ocean. Most ordinary people could only pray to the Sea God when they faced a sea storm.

However, with such an armored warship, he was not afraid of anything.

Ten days later, the sky cleared up. Wei Huo and the others watched the sunrise on the deck. The sun rose slowly from the sea surface and dyed the water red. It was a spectacular sight.

The Navigator broke the waves, but the deck was as stable as flat ground.

Wei Huo asked, “How long will it take us to reach the Western Continent?”

Ma Tengyun said, “At our current speed, we can reach the Western Continent in at most five months. If things go smoothly, perhaps even sooner.”
